Fever is one of the most common reasons people visit the emergency department. While fevers are the body’s natural way to fight illness — and most can be managed at home — some require immediate medical attention.

Visit the ER if:
🏥 An infant under 3 months has a fever of 100.4°F or higher
🏥 A child or adult has a fever of 104°F or higher
🏥 The fever comes with severe symptoms like difficulty breathing, confusion, stiff neck, rash, or vomiting
🏥 Fever doesn’t respond to acetaminophen or ibuprofen
🏥 You have a weakened immune system

At Watertown Regional Medical Center’s Emergency Department, we’re here 24/7 with board-certified emergency physicians, experienced nurses, and on-call specialists in orthopedics, cardiology, OB-GYN, Interventional Cardiology, and more.

It’s National Primary Care Week — a great reminder of the importance of establishing and maintaining a relationship with a primary care provider.

Having a primary care provider means having a trusted partner who knows your health history, helps you stay up-to-date on annual screenings and vaccines, and is there when you need care. Plus, they can connect you to the right specialists when you need more advanced care.

You’re in good hands with the primary care providers in Watertown and surrounding communities like Johnson Creek, Lake Mills, Waterloo, and Juneau. The Watertown Physicians Network brings together employed and independent clinics, focusing on quality care and helping ensure seamless insurance coverage between primary and specialty providers.

The DAISY Award is an international recognition program that honors and celebrates the skillful, compassionate care nurses provide every day. Lynsey was nominated by a patient’s family who shared how she kept them informed and supported during one of their most stressful moments.

Thank you, Lynsey, for providing safe, quality, and compassionate care. It’s people like you who give families in Watertown and the surrounding communities a place they can trust.

Yesterday we welcomed a new group of Urology specialists to our Urology Clinic!

With longtime Urologist Dr. Ronald Sokovich beginning to reduce his hours ahead of retirement later this year, we’re ensuring patients continue to have access to high-quality urology care close to home.

Urologists are specialists who treat conditions of the urinary tract and male reproductive system, including kidney stones, bladder problems, prostate health, incontinence, and cancers of the urinary system.

With more providers, advanced procedures (like robotic-assisted surgery), and 24/7 emergency coverage, patients in Dodge and Jefferson Counties now have expanded access to expert urology care.

📞 Call 920.261.1334 to schedule an appointment or talk with your primary or specialty care provider about a referral.
